Tony: Will you be serving alcohol?
Tim: Wine for sure.
Tony: I didn’t realize you had an an upstairs gallery.
Tim: Oh, it’s really nice; it has a roof top deck which has just been expanded.

Gumby has been spotted in downtown Bloomington
by maggie saluto borkholder
remember gumby? He was the lovable clay character adored by children and adult's beginning in the 1950s and spanning over a thirty-five year period. Well, he's back! In a very small way Gumby is once again gracing our lives right here in Bloomington. On W. Market St. near the corner store of Crossroads there's Gumby etched in the stone wall.
Why there is a tiny Gumby etched into the brick wall remains a mystery. Even more interesting is his coloring. This particular Gumby is bright yellow. Miniature in size, Gumby was originally green. What is his significance in our downtown? I am open to theories, or maybe some of you know the real reason Gumby is there.
Please send me your ideas at maggieborkholder@yahoo.com and I will update you next week as to why Bloomington thinks we have a Gumby.
